All I know is that there are a lot of fast cars here in socal and ALL of them didnt come out of CMS. There are many good shops that people here in TEch may not be aware of but doesnt mean they aint out there so whatever man. At least you agree that you can sound unprofessional at times and you must know youre a bit (understatement) cocky, hell even some of your customers say that.

I aint gonna be here going back and forth but let me tell you something YOU dont know... I was there when White Mongoose's car was in the shop and I even met Carlos and the shop didnt tune his car. I was there when they couldnt get the software to communicate with his ecu and they even had a friend from the dealership come down to reflash it for free with a Tech2. I guess Carlos got impatient and went somewhere else but the guys here treated him real cool and as a matter of fact the guys at the shop are all still very good friends with Carlos' old friends. I also know ( i have a pm that was sent to me and if the sender wants to I'll post it) that you just quoted someone $16,000 to build a 500hp smog legal motor, and you said it could only be done with LS7 parts trying to justify the price. WTH, really? So please get the story right before opening your mouth about something thats not true. And if anyone has doubts about my shops tuning I have my car plus many others that anyone can come check out. In fact a lot of guys here have seen my car and have seen it run so I let it speak for itself. Anyway Ryne, I know you care about this subject and thats why you respond and I know it itches you to have the last word so do whatever, Im done here

OP, sorry your thread turned into this. There are a lot of good shops out there, hope you find one that fits your needs.

p.s. my prices were all based on my installing, building and tuning everything.

I wont even get into arguing about how to build it and be here posting forever. You are a sponsoring shop with a large customer base from this western section, why couldnt you just tell the guy "hey come to my shop I can help you". You got customers if they want to recommend you hey thats cool. Can you really say anywhere else would be a waste of time? If youre good you dont need to go there.


Oh by the way,
480hp LS3 crate motor $8600, with a small smog legal cam only ($350 for a cam) 500hp+ all day
http://www.jegs.com/i/GM%20Performan...0002/-1?CT=999

Or this,

Smog legal H/C combo for LS3 85+HP increase, $2495
http://www.c5racer.com/catalog/Engin...duct_info.html

Stroker LS3 forged short block from Texas Speed, $4774
http://www.texas-speed.com/SHOP/item...d=686&catid=20

So h/c plus short block for $7269 for well over 500hp and smog legal. This means $8731 for tune and install? Or lets say you spend another $1500 on parts and shipping, so $6871 for tune and intall? What are you using, 24kt gold wrenches? Youre right, might as well do it yourself and save $5-7K.

No more posting for me in this thread. I said what I wanted to say. Peace to everyone and life is too short to spend it arguing.
